Ok, I asked this question in a different thread, but I didn't get an answer. It seems as if some people are partial to the R/C/R LED tails, which have LED trunk lights, but the Turn signals aren't LED. And the EE Tail lights are full LED, but the 'ugly' trunk lights are bulb based. Not to mention that R/C/R facelift style LED tail lights are only for pre-facelift cars. So my question is:

Is it possible to combine the EE LED tails with the LED trunk lights from the R/C/R led kit to have a full LED rear?

? (Quick Photoshop to illustrate what I mean)

Lol I know it's a bad photoshop, that literally took 2 minutes. If I really wanted it to look better I'd have taken my time to get a better picture and actually taken the time to do it right. I'm actually not that bad, but I was lazy/tired.

Hence 'Quick' photoshop.

don't have an answer to your question but the ones in the first pic look pretty good IMO

The first pic? Yea those are the LED Trunk lights from the LED R/C/R tails, but I wanted to know if it is possible to combine them with the Eagle Eye R/C LED Tails

yes it's possible. but i don't know where you'd be able to buy them separately, unless a r/c/r owner doesn't want his.

Well, if money weren't an issue, one could buy both, and only use the trunk lights from the R/C/R kit and the EE's from the EE kit and call it a day. Then you'd have a set of bulb trunk lights and a set of R/C/R LED's :-D

I don't have a problem with R/C/R LED's, I just think that they look better on facelift cars (which they aren't available for as far as I know). If money were no issue, I'd get a 99-01 prefacelift, get the R/C/R LED tails, then buy the facelifted fenders/lights/hood/bumper. That's even more $$$ though. I know of one member who did it.
